What the differences mean
The Titleist Vokey SM11 offers the wider selection: 27 loft/bounce/grind combinations against 23 for the TaylorMade MG5. Each is ground 6 ways — SB, SC, SX, LB, HB, and TW for the TaylorMade MG5, F, S, M, D, K, and T for the Titleist Vokey SM11.
The TaylorMade MG5 is sold from 46° to 60°, the Titleist Vokey SM11 from 44° to 60°. Only the Titleist Vokey SM11 comes in 44°.
The scoring lofts are where bounce and grind choice matters most: at 56° the TaylorMade MG5 offers 5 options to 4; at 58° the Titleist Vokey SM11 offers 6 options to 5; at 60° both offer 6 options. More options at a degree means more ways to match the sole to your turf and swing, which is what a wedge fitting actually selects.
The two lines launched 1 year apart (2025 and 2026), so they compete head-to-head rather than one replacing the other.
Which should you choose?
Neither is the better wedge outright — both are current tour-style designs. The Titleist Vokey SM11 offers the wider option matrix, which matters if you want an unusual bounce or grind at your loft; otherwise choose on feel, finish and price at the combination you actually play.
